The paper by Wang et al. (2024) targets an interesting topic in the context of particle methods, namely, volume conservation. This important feature is studied by focusing on the time variation of mean water level under three different scenarios corresponding to hydrostatics, standing wave and dam break, and through consideration of a few variants of the Weakly Compressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (WCSPH) fluid model. In this discussion, the discussers briefly discuss some issues that could have been further considered in the paper by Wang et al. (2024) to ensure rigorousness and comprehensiveness of the conducted comparative analysis.
